What are the methods to treat your child's low fever?

Patient's question:

Afternoon with low fever [38.3] and cold hands and feet

Doctor's answer:

The condition you described may be caused by tonsillitis, with antibiotic treatment being the primary approach. Medications should be taken in sufficient dosage and duration. Some oral traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbs that clear heat and detoxify, as well as alleviate symptoms, can be used as supplementary treatment. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold foods that may irritate the throat. If the effect is not satisfactory, hospitalization for tonsillectomy may be considered for treatment.
